abstract = "This paper proposes an extension to the televisionwatching
paradigm that permits an end-user to enrich
broadcast content. Examples of this enriched content
are: virtual edits that allow the order of presentation
within the content to be changed or that allow the content
to be subsetted; conditional text, graphic or video
objects that can be placed to appear within content and
triggered by viewer interaction; additional navigation
links that can be added to structure how other users
view the base content object. The enriched content can
be viewed directly within the context of the TV viewing
experience. It may also be shared with other users
within a distributed peer group. Our architecture is
based on a model that allows the original content to remain
unaltered, and which respects DRM restrictions
on content reuse. The fundamental approach we use
is to define an intermediate content enhancement layer
that is based on the W3C’s SMIL language. Using a
pen-based enhancement interface, end-users can manipulate
content that is saved in a home PDR setting.
This paper describes our architecture and it provides
several examples of how our system handles content
enhancement. We also describe a reference implementation
for creating and viewing enhancements."
